Jia Fulian, 91, has been living with a tree growing through his house for nearly 40 years. The 300-year-old locust tree grows through Jia's kitchen and out of the wall, in Beizhao village, Shijiazhuang, capital of northern China's Hebei province. According to Jia he extended his childhood home in 1974, but rather than chop the tree down he simply built around it.Picture: HAP/Quirky China News / Rex Features
